On Easter weekend a few years ago, we had an unusually hard spring freeze that damaged
not only flowers and shrubs, but much of the fruit crops in Asheville and around the south.  
This tulip grows just across the street from my driveway, and I saw it every morning, and
finally carried the camera all the way over there and tried this shot with a red filter to lighten
the flower and darken the foliage.  Though I had a nice Polaroid of the image, I had never
tried to make a good print until recently.  When I took the print and showed it to a painter
friend, he reacted with such enthusiasm, that I thought I'd pass it around.  I find the graphics
of the leaves more appealing as I look at it.  It's alway nice to find something new to look at in
an older photo.

As most people seem to
prefer them, prices are for
framed prints, ready to
hang.  I use a very nice
matt black wood frame 7/8
of an inch wide, with a
white mat.  If you would
like to order unframed
prints, go to the
"Purchase" page for
pricing.
